I've found a few similar posts to this but most people seem to be looking at costs of installation as well as running costs so I was hoping somebody might have a bit more info.

'why would my estimated bill for the next year be over £400 cheaper than last year?
We just moved out of a house, where we had been supplied by npower for two years. As the direct debit had been set at the wrong level at first, we built up a debt of £338, and our direct debit was switched to £172 a month ten months ago. We despaired at this, obviously - for a small two bed bungalow with two adults and two…

EON Prepayment Debt - I have no receipts
Hi, I just got a call from EON about a debt of £118 for my prepayment meter, which I'd disputed.

EON -> British Gas limbo
Hi, provided meter reads to my new supplier (BG) a week ago; BG say they passed the readings on to EON; EON say they haven't received any readings from BG.
